The exercise:

Write two haiku about: the twenties.

Seemed appropriate today.

It took me a moment to realise that you're referring to the date :) I guess 20/10/2020 isn't a bad numerical coincidence! I'm a little disappointed, in a way, that we missed 10/10/2020 now.

The twenties
The 1920s
Were a dress-rehearsal for
Occult horrors now.

Trump is clearly an
Elder Abomination.
Now unsummon him.

[I have a very hard time deciding if it's "cle-ar-ly" with three syllables or "clear-ly" with two, and I'm assuming it's a dialect thing. So I've used two, because that's more convenient for me, but I'm pretty sure I usually pronounce it with three (or maybe two and a half if I'm talking fast)]

Greg - well, at least I caught one of them with a prompt :)

Yup, this seems accurate. Hopefully they've got the unsummoning all sorted out and ready to go... next week? Wow, next week. Not such a long time to keep my fingers crossed then.

I'd go with two as well, by the way.
